dc.description<p>Objective: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a systemic disease induced by SARS-CoV-2 causing myocardial injury. To date, there are few data on the correlation between mid-regional proAdrenomedullin (MR-proADM) and myocardial injury. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the association of myocardial injury and elevated mid-regional proAdrenomedullin values could predict mortality of SARS-CoV-2 patients, to offer the best management to COVID-19 patients. Materials and methods: All patients hospitalized for SARS-CoV-2 infection at the COVID-19 Center of the Campus Bio-Medico of Rome University were included between October 2020 and March 2021 and were retrospectively analyzed. Myocardial injury was defined as rising and/or fall of cardiac hs Troponin I values with at least one value above the 99th percentile of the upper reference limit (≥15.6 ng/L in women and ≥34.2 ng/L in men). The primary outcome was 30-day mortality. Secondary outcomes were the comparison of MR-proADM, CRP, ferritin, and PCT as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of myocardial injury. Additionally, we analyzed the development of ARDS, the need for ICU transfer, and length of stay (LOS). Results: A total of 161 patients were included in this study. Of these, 58 (36.0%) presented myocardial injury at admission. An MR-proADM value ≥ 1.19 nmol/L was defined as the optimal cut-off to identify patients with myocardial injury (sensitivity 81.0% and specificity 73.5%). A total of 121 patients (75.2%) developed ARDS, which was significantly more frequent among patients with myocardial injury (86.2 vs. 68.9%, p = 0.015). The overall 30-day mortality was 21%. Patients with myocardial injury presented significantly higher mortality compared to those without the same (46.6 vs. 6.8%, p &lt; 0.001). When dividing the entire study population into four groups, based on the presence of myocardial injury and MR-proADM values, those patients with both myocardial injury and MR-proADM ≥ 1.19 nmol/L presented the highest mortality (53.2%, p &lt; 0.001). The combination of myocardial injury and MR-proADM values ≥ 1.19 nmol/L was an independent predictor of death (OR = 7.82, 95% CI = 2.87–21.30; p &lt; 0.001). Conclusion: The study is focused on the correlation between myocardial injury and MR-proADM. Myocardial injury induced by SARS-CoV-2 is strongly associated with high MR-proADM values and mortality.</p>eng
